62 Treat
Vivian pointed to the shop across the street and said, “The two of you, go and investigate the shop owners. Get whatever you can.”
Lillian was worried about Vivian and suggested, “Boss, I’ll send you and Young Master Leon back to the hotel first.”
Vivian thought she had nothing to do anyway, so she took Leon back to the hotel.
Vivian did not know about Andy’s progress, but waiting was a waste of time. She decided to take the initiative.
Eternal Jewelry was one of the most famous jewelry stores in Sage City. This kind of century-old store was not comparable to ordinary jewelry stores in terms of network and supply. Jack, who was able to sit in the position of general manager, was naturally not simple.
Vivian dialed the jewelry store’s landline and successfully contacted Jack. “Hello, Mr. Jack, I’m Vivian.”
When he heard the name, Jack was reminded of the 800 Yuan raw stone. He replied, “Hello, Ms. Vivian. I haven’t seen you in a while. How have you been?”
Then, Vivian said in a joking tone, “If I get good Jade again, will you still accept it?”
Recently, there was a famous large-scale stone gambling event in the capital. Jack smiled and said, “Of course, we’re in this line of business. As long as the goods are good, we’ll consider it. Ms. Vivian is going to participate in the stone gambling event led by Gu Muxuan the day after tomorrow, right? A lot of industry insiders will be going. I didn’t expect you to arrive so soon. Our team is preparing to set off tomorrow.”
Vivian smiled. “It’s this one! I just arrived today and met Mr. George at the airport. It seems that I’ll be able to meet a lot of old acquaintances the day after tomorrow.”
Vivian’s smile froze on her face. Thinking of the conversation with George the other day, she quickly realized that George’s trip to the capital was not about stone gambling, so she quickly adjusted the content of the conversation and said regretfully, “Sigh, that’s really a pity. We’re missing such a leading figure. When will you arrive tomorrow? Gathering for a meal? I’m new to the stone-gambling industry, so I’d like to ask for your advice.”
Although Vivian had never bought anything from Eternal Jewelry, Jack’s intuition told him this woman was not simple. Now that she was offering him a way out, why not take the initiative to test her?
If Vivian was really capable, he could also use this opportunity to build a good relationship with her. “I’ll be there this afternoon. When it comes to treating, it has to be done by a man. It’s rare to meet Ms. Vivian again. How can I let an elegant and beautiful lady pay?”
Vivian had a purpose, so she naturally couldn’t let Jack pay. She smiled and said, “You don’t have to be so polite with me. Just teach me more secret techniques when the time comes. Then, let’s set a dinner. Tomorrow night at 7 o’clock, how about the Capital Hotel?”
Jack agreed readily. “No problem, Ms. Vivian. See you tomorrow night.”
The two set a time and exchanged phone numbers before Vivian Hung up.
After knowing that George had another purpose for this trip, Vivian did not ask further. Firstly, she had only met Jack once and did not have a deep friendship. Secondly, Jack might not know George’s purpose in coming to the capital. Everything could wait until they met tomorrow to see if they could get some information to make a comprehensive judgment.
Angela and the others returned soon after. They had also found an empty shop for rent. Everything had been settled, and they just had to sign the contract the next morning.
The next morning, Lilian and Daisy brought a male bodyguard with them and left to continue their investigation.
Vivian asked David to rent a Stretch Lincoln Limousine. Since they had decided to stay for a few more days, it was definitely not possible for such a large group of people to travel without a car.
Vivi went to sign the real estate contract with Edward first, then went to handle the transfer procedures. After making sure that there were no mistakes, she handed the check of 1.8 million to Edward, and the transaction between the two was officially completed.
